目的 探讨慢性阻塞性肺疾病急性加重(AECOPD)合并肺栓塞(PE)的临床特点。 方法 回顾性分析2009年1月-2012年6月38例AECOPD合并PE患者(栓塞组)的临床资料,并与42例单纯AECOPD(对照组)临床资料进行对比。 结果 栓塞PE组不对称性下肢水肿发生率明显高于对照组(P<0.05),另外肺动脉高压、D-二聚体及修改的Geneva评分与对照组比较存在一定差异,且差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。 结论 AECOPD合并PE的临床表现并不特异,当AECOPD出现不对称性水肿、D-二聚体升高、肺动脉高压及修改的Geneva评分升高等表现不能解释原因时,要考虑PE的可能,并尽快选择CT肺动脉成像或肺动脉造影以明确诊断。
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant intraarterial chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer. Methods We searched databases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, VIP, CNKI, CBMdisc, conference articles, and Ongoing Controlled Trial for Random Controlled Trials and quasi-Random Controlled Trials up to October 2009. For homogeneous studies, we performed meta-analysis. Results Fifteen studies involving 1 331 participants with advanced cervical cancer were included. Twelve studies showed that the efficacy of the NIC group was 6.72 times than that of the traditional group. Several studies showed that the survival rate of the NIC group was better than that of the traditional group. Meanwhile, the adverse events of the NIC group were fewer than those of the traditional group. Conclusions The results of this system review show that, NIC which is more effective than conventional treatments with less adverse reactions provides a new adjunct for clinical treatment of advanced cervical cancer . However, due to the current clinical treatment for the disease is the coexistence of multiple chemotherapy program status, the higher quality and more focused clinical research which will compare NIC with a variety of conventional chemotherapy are needed in the further.
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of sevoflurane versus ketamine in the anesthesia of child short period surgery. Methods Such databases as EMbase, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, CBMdisc, Ongoing Controlled Trial and Conference Articles were searched from their establishment to April 2011 to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and the quasi-RCTs. The quality of those studies meeting the inclusive criteria was assessed, the data were extracted and the meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.1.1 software. Results Ten studies involving 600 participants were included. Seven studies showed that the intraoperative heart rate of the sevoflurane group was lower than that of the ketamine group (MD= –11.85, 95%CI –16.47 to –7.23, Plt;0.000 01). Nine studies showed that the revival time of the sevoflurane group was shorter than that of the ketamine group (MD= –29.05, 95%CI –37.98 to –20.12, Plt;0.000 01). Three studies showed that the anesthesia induction time of the sevoflurane group was shorter than that of the ketamine group (MD= –208.45, 95%CI –359.22 to –57.68, P=0.007). Six studies showed that the influence on mean arterial pressure (MAP) had no significante difference (MD= –4.86, 95%CI –10.02 to 0.29, P=0.06). Meanwhile, seven studies showed that the adverse events of the sevoflurane group were fewer than those of the ketamine group (Peto OR=0.29, 95%CI 0.20 to 0.40, Plt;0.000 01). Conclusion The results of this system review show that sevoflurane is more effective than ketamine with fewer adverse reactions, and it provides a new choice for clinical anesthesia for child short period surgery. However, ketamine is still the main drug in clinical anesthesia for the child short period surgery at present, so high quality studies are needed for further clinical researches.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of attenuated expression of neuraminidase 3 (NEU3) via RNA interference on the proliferation and apoptosis in human osteosarcoma MG-63 cells.MethodsMG-63 cells were immunostained to observe the expression of NEU3. The cells were then divided into 5 groups: MG-63 cells in normal control group (group A) were not treated; MG-63 cells in 30, 50, and 100 nmol/L NEU3 RNA interference groups (groups B, C, and D) were transfected with 30, 50, and 100 nmol/L of NEU3 small interfering RNA (siRNA); negative control group (group E), MG-63 cells were transfected with different species negative siRNA (actin siRNA of mice, 50 nmol/L). The expression level of NEU3 mRNA was measured with real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR). The proliferation of the cells was measured by cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8). The cell apoptosis rate was detected by flowcytometry (FCM). The expressions of cell apoptosis related proteins (Ras and Bcl-2) were detected by Western blot assay.ResultsNEU3 expressed in the cytoplasm of MG-63 cells under fluorescence microscope. The qPCR results showed that NEU3 mRNA levels were significantly lower in groups B, C, D than that in groups A and E (P<0.05) after 24 hours of transfection; meanwhile, with the increase of siRNA concentration, NEU3 mRNA levels were significantly decreased (P<0.05). The CCK-8 results showed that with the increase of siRNA concentration, the survival rate of MG-63 cells was significantly suppressed (P<0.05) and the apoptosis rate of MG-63 cells was significantly accelerated (P<0.05) after 48 hours of transfection. FCM results showed that after 24 hours of transfection, the number of live MG-63 cells decreased as that of the dead cells increased in groups B, C, D, and showing significant differences between 3 groups (P<0.05). While the apoptosis rate in groups B, C, and D showed significant difference when compared with that of group A (P<0.05); and when compared with group E, the apoptosis rate in groups C and D were significantly reduced (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between groups B and E (P>0.05). The results of Western bolt assay showed that the protein levels of Ras and Bcl-2 in groups B and C were not significantly different from groups A and E (P>0.05), while the protein levels of Ras and Bcl-2 were significantly decreased in group D (P<0.05).ConclusionAttenuated expression of NEU3 could inhibit the survival of MG-63 cells and accelerate its apoptosis. The results suggest that NEU3 could be a possible target for treating osteosarcoma.
Stroke has the characteristics of high incidence rate, high mortality rate and high disability rate. Most patients may have some motor dysfunction after stroke, which greatly affects the normal life of patients. As a common sequela after stroke, foot drop seriously affects the walking gait of patients, limits the activities of patients, and reduces their quality of life. In recent years, repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) has been used more and more in the rehabilitation of various diseases. Because rPMS is noninvasive, affordable and effective, it is accepted by many patients. This article reviews the research progress of rPMS for foot drop after stroke.
